Just Had To Laugh...
Finishing this Home Depot, and the store manager has been a real pain to deal with. I don't think she has ever been involved in anything to do with construction...
Anyway, she came up to me a few minutes ago... "We have had a tragedy" OK, I am thinking someone got hurt or something so I follow her across the store... One of there forklift operators came thru an automatic door... and when I say came thru, I mean the door and glass and panels are DESTROYED:ouch:! As soon as I came around the corner I could not contain myself and started laughing...:w2::tttt: So now she is kissing my butt... I love Karma sometimes.:ph: |
lol. nothing wrong with a bit of butt kissing..:choochoo:

Manager? WTF does a store manager have to do with the construction of a store? The store belongs to the contractor until he signs it over to the owners. I'd tell the manager and employees to get the heck out of the way before they get hurt.

Once 90% of the work is complete, most retail stores go into a Possession situation. They are in the store, stocking, racking and training while we finish all the stuff that has to happen as they move it... Not fun, but not bad... this manager is just a PIA! |
built a few of them too, and a lowes........ funniest was the lowes, it is on top of an old landfill.......... 8 months later setting up the transit, the whole lot sank 3 inches........ then the poor bugger that said he would guarentee compaction or the work was free...... he dropped a 4 ton weight for three months and it never did pass compaction...... gm decided he did not want to pin the floor to pilings just pile under the columns......... store was open a month and had to close, whole floor settled so bad around the columns that your cart would dive this way nad that arond the forming humps...... what a project :ouch:
